I like the visuals and the atmosphere.

I really don't want to mention this... But how the camera looks away from where you are pointing. It feels so strange, and I just couldn't get over it. It should be the other way around. When you move the mouse to the left, the camera should also move to the left. It makes no sense, that you are focusing on an object to the left (moving your cursor there), but then you see less of if, than if you move your cursor to the right.

Okay, now that I mentioned it, just want to say that everything except this is lovely. (Although not happy)
Edit: I just didn't want to repeat what everyone have said before me, and that is why I kept it so short. :)

The story and art is amazing, I felt like reading a book and standing at the art galery at the same time

This game makes me love game jams. This was so artistic and made me rethink the way I approach games and what games can be.

Thank you for the review! We took your comments about the extra paid stuff in mind! Also this is the first time we put any sort of game up on itch.io so we didn't realize we could change the suggested payment setting thing - that's all been adjusted, and we'll keep that in mind for the future.

No biggie! Its common practice  to only ask for money after the game jam ratings are over. The art is very well done so you guys should be proud!

That certainly took the theme in a unique direction and the atmosphere was very well done. It the most emotionally engaging game I've played from this jam.
